This new, thoroughly updated edition of Bradt's Serbia covers all
the practical information you could need plus comprehensive details
of Serbian history, geography, economy, politics and people, as
well as food and wine, city life, hiking and outdoors and adventure
trips. Significant improvements to accommodation throughout the
country over the past few years are also covered, with a wide range
of options included, from five-star and boutique hotels to
backpacker hostels. Bradt's Serbia also has a strong emphasis on
culture and the arts - music, literature, cinema and art - and on
natural history, with a thorough overview of Serbia's best wildlife
sites. Serbia remains one of the least known corners of Europe
although Belgrade, the capital, is becoming increasingly popular
with overseas visitors, as is the second city, Novi Sad. Both are
lively, cosmopolitan and welcoming cities with vibrant nightlife.
In contrast, rural Serbia, with its hidden monasteries and gorgeous
countryside, is an undiscovered gem. This new edition covers
everything from the development of the Savamala riverfront in
Belgrade to village stays, archaeological sites from the Roman era
or earlier (no fewer than 18 Roman emperors were born in the
territory that is now Serbia, including Constantine the Great),
public transport information, the EXIT festival and Guca Trumpet
Festival and, of course, the country's sporting prowess: tennis
star Novak Djokovic has won 20 Grand Slam single titles, while in
team sports, Serbia has excelled at water polo, basketball,
volleyball and football in recent years. No matter your interest,
whether it be travelling on one of the steepest climbing railway
lines in the world, the Sargan Eight line, visiting one of the
largest Orthodox Christian churches in the world, Belgrade's Temple
of St Sava, or wandering around the National Museum or Museum of
Contemporary Art, both now finally re-opened, Bradt's Serbia offers
everything you need for a successful trip.
